Not for everyone but it's freezing so why not?

Just rooting for Croatia and Modric.

I'd quite like Morocco to do it. They've been a breath of fresh air in this tournament.

They have sub, and will be great for them to finish third. But Modric has been great again so in his likely last international just going for them.

Can’t summon up any enthusiasm to watch this beyond a couple of minutes at a time. Is the ground full?

I remember England were rubbish in the third placed okay off in italia 90. It’s still good to get the bronze in my opinion .

Don't think anyone would remember Italy getting bronze in the World Cup. I just remember players from both sides fannying about, holding flowers at for the photographers at the end of the game.

Not sure that medals were even handed out back then (I could be wrong).
England were OK in that game, and it was only a highly suspect penalty late on (that some believe was only given to let Schillachi claim the golden boot) that settled it.
